Probably Chests Mod — Reference

The Mimic (Mob)

Mimics are the primary threat introduced by the mod. They are hostile entities that perfectly mimic the appearance of any chest type. A Mimic remains motionless until a player attempts to open it or break it, at which point it reveals its sharp teeth and attacks.

Behavior

  • Ambush: Mimics stay idle and are indistinguishable from regular chests until interacted with.
  • Movement: They move by hopping aggressively toward the player, similar to Slimes or Magma Cubes.
  • Retreat: If a Mimic cannot reach its target for a period of time, it may return to its chest form to wait for another opportunity.
  • Detection: While they look identical to chests, players may notice subtle differences in placement or use a Suspicious Key to force a transformation.

Drops: * Suspicious Eye: A rare material used for crafting keys. * Key Fragments: Used to assemble various keys. * Random Loot: Mimics drop the items that would have been found in the chest they were mimicking.

Items and Keys

Keys

  • Gold Key: Required to open the naturally spawning Gold Chests.
  • Void Key: Required to open Void Chests found in the End dimension.
  • Suspicious Key: When used on a placed chest, it transforms the chest into a Wild Mimic.

Miscellaneous Items

  • Suspicious Eye: Dropped by Mimics; a core component in high-tier key crafting.
  • Key Fragments: Common drops from Mimics used to craft various keys.
